A travelling wave in a stretched string ...

A travelling wave in a stretched string is described by the equation `y = A sin (kx - omega t)`. The maximum particle velocity is.

A

`Aomega`

B

`omega//k`

C

`domega//dk`

D

`x//t`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`v=(dy)/(dt)=Aomega cos(kx-omegat) therefore V_max=Aomega`
